    Hi guys
    Noticed recently my R26 occasionally sounds like the wheel bearing has gone and it has a wobwobwobwob noise which gets louder under fast cornering, yet other times it's not there and makes no funny noises at all
    anyone had this before?
    Cheers

    probably should have put this in the suspension bit if someone wants to move it

    I'd say bearings or wonky disk?

    I've had this on my 250 although it was rear,it was a dodgy tyre that still had 4mm and looked fine on the car once removed it had uneven wear on edges known as castle topped. Car was checked and rear suspension fine ,noise came and went like you say. once tyre was changed all good so seems my rear end does not like dunlops once they are at half life.
